-THE FUNNY 25-
At the end of each year since the early 1970s The Dr. Demento Show has
released a show known as The Funny 25. This show is a countdown of the
25 funniest/most requested songs of that particular year. I am very
proud to say that I have made my first ever appearance on this chart
this year! My song Vampires Suck has reached the rank of #14 for the
whole year of 2009. Thank you everybody who kept requesting the song
throughout the year. Here's to more Funny 25 hits in 2010!
-EP PRE-ORDERS-
You can now, as you read this go pre-order my upcoming January 2010
EP, cleverly titled: EP of Intense Ubosity. For just 5 measly dollars
you can get the EP, shipped to you on January 15, 2010 (It's official
release), have it autographed by me (Or some one with a very similar
autograph, don't worry you won't be able to tell), and within the
casing a small piece of paper that gives you a URL link to a brand new
song from the upcoming 2nd album (More information on that below). So
go right now to http://www.oddaustin.com/ubosity.php and pre-order!
The autograph and URL link will not be sent with the product after the
release date!
-UPCOMING SHOWS-
So I already have quite a few shows planned for early next year! The
first show of the year will take place on February 19th in Greeley,
Colorado at a Middle School. I tell you this for informational
purposes only, as the show is only available to those who go to the
school. I get to talk about music then play a show for the kids at the
school, it'll be cool! The next show after that may or may not be me
returning to the Silver Creek Battle of the Bands (if you didn't see
me there last year, go to my free downloads page and check out the
live recordings), more on that later. After that as mentioned before,
I will be a main stage act at MarsCon 2010 in Bloomington, MN. So
lottsa shows already for next year, make sure to be at at least one of
'em!
-THE NEXT CD-
We are nearing completion on the recording for my upcoming (hopefully
March) 2010 album! There's still a lot of work to be done but I'm
confident enough that we might get it done in time for a MarsCon
release! The album title if you didn't know is going to be
Inconspicuous Explosion, and it will feature art by TV's Kyle, and
parodies of several top songs from the last few years, as well as one
from decades ago. So stay tuned to my website to pre-order the album
when I start that whole thing some time in February. (Also the reason
I'm making the EP mentioned above is to raise money to pay for this
album, so if you want to see it released, please go get the EP
today!).
-THANK YOU!-
I would like to thank everybody for an awesome 2009. This year has
been even more successful than last year was, and I hope it will only
get better. Thanks for buying, listening to, and requesting my songs!
Let's talk some time at one of my shows in 2010! Thanks again!
